Comes with integral cooking device: just set your hot dog next to the antenna and turn this on...

OMG that is wired all wrong!!
Clearly the wire going from the upper left down to toward the right should not be plugged into that and the yellow wires... well don't get me started
That is a lot of stuff in side that Pinz but really like the look of it from outside!!

Is it a British thing not to list the year of manufacture on the vehicle ad, or am I missing something?

I think this is it

First registered 02 03 1989, first registered UK 01 05 2008

First registration doesn’t mean year, SDP could have held it at the factory for years before selling it. The Swiss had a 718AMB at auction a few years back listed as a 1992, but definitely a P80, and the VIN was earlier than mine.
The seller must not know TD Pinzes either, the locker systems are electro-pneumatic, not hydraulic. The “inner cooler” is interesting, as not on the P80s though this nose has a custom extension on it and still has the original smaller P80 radiator and not a P90 or 93 larger one.
I’d love to have the radio gear for the Fly Dump Truck .

You buy it and then I will take the truck off your hands once you get your radio gear

And if you read it carefully, you'd know the kit doesn't go with the truck.... it would probably go for more than the truck

I have fitted this truck out as a radio and surveillance truck

After reading the seller's statement, I can't help but imagining this truck, with it's radio masts, FLIR thermal camera on the roof, blinking radio lights inside
"covertly" following a suspect on a surveillance mission through European streets surrounded by little cars,Mini's and Fiats etc..

Sort of a a Peter Sellers/Pink Panther kind of scene.
